I swear, for years they ran the whole province as a defato government. Nobody would dare touch them. The cops wouldn't go near them.

Finally the cops formed the Wolverine squad (cute) and went after them in a giant springtime series of raids. They built a huge armoured courthouse and tried about a dozen of the top Hell's Angels. It was a complete farce. Most pled guilty to jaywalking and got very light sentences. Those who did have to do real time are simply running the show from prison.

In the end, the Hell's Angels were weakened, but they still run a huge part of the Quebec bar scene and do pretty much anything they want.
They never got the chance. When the local cops and the mounties got wind that the angels were moving east they leaned on them pretty hard right out of the gate. The reason we have an organized crime squad in HRM now is because the Hell's angels bought 2 bars in Halifax-Dartmouth in the late 80's. Now their "club house" has been shut down for years, and all the property they bought has been seized and auctioned off.
